TURPENTlNE FARMING.

Interesting Information Concerning This
Important Southern Industry.
Finding myself in the pine-region Of
Southeast Georgia, and thinking that
some information on the subject above
named may not prove uninteresting to
your readers, will endeavor to tell to
them that which has been impaired to
me by those thoroughly conversant
with the whole business.
A turpentine-farm consists of from
five to forty crops of ten thousand five
hundred boxes each. The work is
sometimes carried on by the owners OF
the pine forests themselves; again, the
trees are leased out for a certain num-
Der of years, two or three being about
the limit Negro labor is principally
employed in this section. The work
commences in November, when the
boxing of the trees begins. The boxes.
which are cut sloping back into the
trees about a foot from the ground,
measure three inches back at bottom,
four deep, and about seventeen in
length. In March they are corneredi
that is, chip is taken off on both
sides just above the ends of the boxes.
Next the faces for dripping are cut
V-shape between and above the places
Clipped. The number of faces on each
tree depends upon its size, varying
from one to three. Besides the origin
al cutting of the faces, the trees are
hacked once a week during the drip
ping season with a peculiarly shaped
knife suited to the purpose. The hack
ing increases the length of the faces.
as one or two inches of bark are taken
off above each time.
The dipping of the crude into bar.
rels begins about the middle of March,
and the boxes are emptied seven or
eight times during the season. They
hold from one to two quarts each, and
from 10, 900 boxes 210 barrels is con-
sidered a fair, $50 fine, yield. The

crude they get two of spirits of turpen-

OF the latter there are several grades:

ORIGIN OF FASHIONS.

Mans and Woman's Slavery to the Whims
of Those High in Social Station.
In observing the characteristics and
changes of fashion it is impossible not
to ridicule them. We may become
familiarized with present fashion and
so see nothing prepOsterous in the at
tire in which humanity may clothe
itself; but when we look back historic
ally to the many devices which have
been used for her occasions we find
abundance of amusement in the
records of luxurious folly: The queen
of fantasy has been denounced with
the anathemas of the church, stigma
tized with the ridicule of the stage and
apparently crushed by sumptuary en-
actments; but ..resurgana'' is written
on her brow and she stalks triumphant
in every age.
Many of the fashions of former days
were invented to conceal some deform-
ity of person. Hoops, cushions, pam
iers and other monstrous devices were
substituted to make up for certain I'M
kindness of Nature, who had not graced
all her creatures with the forms to
which they considered themselves en-
titled. Thus patches were invented in
England in the reign of Edward VI. by
a foreign lady, who concealed with one
an eruption on her face. and to such a
height was the fashion carried that the
ladies cut their black patches into div
ers grotesque forms, such as rings,
crosses, crowns, etc. In book pub
lished at the time the author has pre-
fixed picture of Virtue and of Vice,
in which virtue is modestly represented
as wearing a plain black dress and
hood. with a'kerchief covering her
neck; and Vice with her low-cut dress
wears no 'kerchief over those parts
which modesty should hide. and with a
face variously figured with patches
most curiously devised of all manner
of fantastical conceits.
Full-bottomed wigs were invented
by French barbar named Duviller for
the purpose of concealing a deformity
in the shoulder of the Dauphin OF
France, and, while the beau monde in
England wore their hair luxuriant, the
bench and the bar were seen with the
enormous wig. and the physicians APP
preciated CONFORMITY the magical effect
that was paid to it by the world.
To hide his ill-made legs, Charles
VII. of France introduced long coats,
reaching to the ground, and Henry.
Duke of Aniou, wore shoes, whose
points extended fully two feet, to con-
ceal an excrescence on one of his toes.
So also when Francis T was Obliged
to wear his hair short on account of a
wound he had received on his head, it
became the prevailing fashion of the
time.

her distant lips, and which al.

envy that the world now looks upon

the mincing monkey and the divinely

In every phase of fashion starch has
played its part and it would not be
ton of that powder with which Beau
Brummel fashionably dismayed and con.
quered the Prince Regent of England.
Amid the chronologies of fashion we
find the following event recorded with
historical dignity:
''In the year 1864 Mistris Van Den
Slesas, born in Flanders, daughter to
worshipful Knight of that province,
with her husband came to London for
their better safety, and there protested
herself a starcher; in which she eX-
celled; unto whom her own nation
presently repaired. and paid her very
literally for her work. Some very few
of the best and most curious wives OF
the time, observing the neatness and
delicacy of the Dutch for white
ness and fine wearing of linen, made
them cambria ruffs and sent
them to Mistris Dinghen to starch, and
after awhile they made themselves ruffs
of lawn, which was at that time stuff
most strange and wonderful, and there
upon arose general scott, bye-word,
that shortly they would make ruffs of a
SPIDERS web, and they then began to
send their daughters to Mistris Dinghen
to learn how to starch. Her usual
price at that time was four or five
pounds to teach them how to starch
and twenty shillings how to make
starch"
Fashions repeat themselves, and we
may see our beaux of the present day

them about the year $780, A gallant
of that day was accoutred in a coat of
blue, lined with white silk, large cut
brass buttons styled coronation, "

diamond studs; hand ruffles at the

SAVED FROM DISASTER.
Eminent Persons Who Have Been Pre-
served by a Protecting Providence.

Eminent Persons Who Have Been Pre-.
served by Protecting Providence.
1t will not be difficult to mention
cases in which eminent individuals
have been preserved from danger and
death by the manifest hand of Provi-
dence.
John Knox, the Scotch reformer, had
many enemies, who sought to compass
his destruction. He was in the habit
of sitting in particular chair in his
own house, with his back to the win
dow. One evening, however, when as
sembling his family, he would neither
occupy his accustomed seat nor allow
any body else to do SO. That very
evening a bullet was sent through the
window with design to kill him. It
grazed the chair which he usually oc-
cupied, and made a hole in the candle
stick.
1t is related of Augustine that he was
going on one occasion to preach at a
distart town, and took guide to di-
rect him on the way. By some means
the guide mistook his way, and got
into a by-path. 1t was afterward
learned that party of miscreants had
designed to waylay and murder him,
and that his life was saved through the
guides mistake.
Charles of Bala was once saved from
death by what some would call fool
ish mistake. On one of his journeys
into the wrong boat He had taken
his seat when he discovered it, and
had to change at the last minute. At
first he was vexed and disappointed.
but he afterward learned that the boat
in which he intended to go was lost,
and all its passengers drowned.
Howard, the philanthropist was once
preserved from death by what some
would call mere chance, but which
was no other than special provi-
dence. He always set high value on
Sabbath privileges. and was exact and
careful in his attendance on the means
of grace. That he light neither in
crease the labor of his servants nor
prevent their attendance on public wor-
the chapel at Bedford, where he at
tended. One day a man whom he had
reproved for his idle and dissolute
habits resolved to waylay and murder
him. That morning, however, for
some reason or other, he resolved to
90 on horseback, and by different
road Thus his valuable life was pre-
served.
Rev. John Newton was in the habit
of regarding the hand of God in every
thing, however trivial it might appear
to others. 1.-The way of man is not in
himself" he would say. Il do not
know what belongs to a single step.
When I go to ST Mary Woolnoth, it
seems the same whether go down
Lothberry, or 60 through the Ola
Jewry; but the going through one
street and not another may produce an
effect of lasting consequence. A man
cut down my hammock in sport. but
had he cut it down half an hour later /
had not been here, as the exchange OF
the crew was then making. A man
